Those rocks look poised to tumble at any moment. And yet they haven't. The temple complex lives on. Stunning craftmanship in the detail of this structure.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tempel and photo of them...
ReplyDeleteBest regards, Karin
Beautiful craftsmanship and your photos are great.
ReplyDeleteI hope that in your India the skills that it took to creat these beautiful temples have passed down through the generations so they are not lost. Our country doesn't have a long history, but already the skilled craftmanship of our short past is disappearing ... what a shame. These are beautiful,Rajesh ... Thank you for sharing them.
